Welcome to Kitchn’s series My Superpowered Morning, where we show you how interesting people use their morning routine to help them fuel the rest of the day.

I have a stack of sticky notes inscribed with the mantra “What Would Ina Do?” and I use them sparingly. They’re reserved for my most daunting to-do lists because I find that channeling Ina in stressful situations is a highly effective coping mechanism. Her voice soothes, her laugh twinkles, her sartorial choices comfort, her cooking tips delight, and her relentlessly tested recipes truly never fail.

While I only get to channel Ina from time to time, Ina’s assistant, Lidey Heuck, gets to channel Ina on a daily basis. In addition to assisting Ina with whatever each day brings, Lidey is her recipe tester, sous chef, ingredient coordinator, book tour travel sidekick, social media consultant, and more. She even runs her own blog called Lidey Likes, where she provides recipes and entertaining tips of her own. Basically, it’s Lidey’s literal job to figure out “What would Ina do?”

Recently, though, I got to spend a day with Lidey out in in East Hampton where she lives (just a mile away from her boss) to answer a different question: “What would Lidey do?”

Warrior Fit Testimonials

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
